does the master switch on the drivers door for that window feel loose?

SO what is happening with the folding mirrors.

No lexus in North america has power folding mirrors. We are tooo fat and drive land cruiser stlye vehicles on 5 lane roads to need more space.

I have bought the jdm mirrors to add to my NA ES 300/windom/camry.

Finally got the mirrors 5 months ago ,then realized i also needed a relay to operate them as well. Luckly i don't have to use teh button from toyota as it is only a momentary gorund output anyway ( i can use a regular switch).

Finally got the relay from a jdm avalon today and have to figure out the rest of the wiring to the relay as i know what wires except for 4 (out of 22) on the mirrors do ,the relay has 11 ,i know one of them has to be ground. And the power mirrors switch has 8 and i have figured that out with the help of a NA schematic from my lexus service manuals.

If anyone has any ideas on the wiring i would love to know.

This is a comon answer on our North american site of LOC

but try looking for cracks or holes on you intake pipe .It is teh black pipe from teh air filter to teh manifold that is ribbed. Usually causes the engine to run lean if there is a hole after the MAF . Another common problem is teh iacv /idle air control valve it gets carbon and wont stay running unless you hold teh gas slightly.

How is the fuel pump pressure ,air and fuel filter and gas

Also try cleaning the maf just incase it can cause the same problem when dirty

What year is your car ,which door and is it a right or left hand drive one?

Yah i have a friend over in Japan trying to look it up but if he finds it it might end up being in all japanese

so tehn i would have to get another friend here to decipher it

just a very long process

Then how did your old ES 300/windom get to the U.K. steve?

also the wire colours on the 7 pin harness are

brown/red stripe

brown /white stripe

light green

light green /red stripe

light green/ black stripe

pink /blue stripe

pink /green stripe

if anyone might know?

any channce you might have a manual showing the wiring for the mirrors?

I know what teh 5 plug harness controls ( up/down left right and heated mirrors)

but the other 7 pin harness is another story

we don't have it in northamerica and i have no clue as it would be in japanese otherwise.

i think i need to get the relay to run them also

thanks

btw i prefer teh handbrake over the foot brake

i also notcied teh jdm ones have the side markers and a flip switch on the center vent which we don;t have.

ok the windom

i guess steve would know this?

as he owned one?

or is this a japan only thing

i am trying to wire up mine but i think i need to get the relay as well to make them work as teh schematic is different for the J spec to N/A spec cars

thanks guys

that member is now banned,

And the badges are sold from ages ago.

besides do you reallly want a car that is know as a lexus lexter?

Common problem the idle control valve is clogged with carbon.

It needs to be cleaned or replaced

i wouldn't really worry about it then

and go back to the dealer and ask for why they mislead you to make you buy the wrong parts

maybe you can get tehm to look into the problem you aer having for free

it doesn't sounds like it

it might be a wire

loose

but it is hard to say exactly the problem as i am not even sure what it is trying to say with the above fault

it just might be the tranny selector is not engaging all teh way all teh time

a condition that can be caused by the engine mounts also

but it still affects teh tranny

do the ligths on the dash show the proper selection of gears all teh time?

what year is the car ?

and i do not know of a chip behind any radio

or any link bettween the keless trunk and cigarette lighter

there is a switch in the glove box that locks out the trunk to not open unless with the key though

the lighter might just be a fuse

p 1705 is transmission range cuircit not indicating park or neutral

it is not an egr o2 or maf sensor problem

just a tranny one

disconnect the Battery for a minute and it will reset but

you gain nothing by that

as you will not be able to diagnose the problem

the car will automatically turn off the cel if the problems go away within three engine cycles of it being run if it is no longer a problem

the mounting kit is from a company called metra in the U.S.

it only hold the radio int eh oversized space

the amp for the radio is located under the passenger seat

try getting an amp first to fix it

what is wrong with yours

also check all teh fuses including teh ones int eh engien bay not just under the dash

one odd thing is it is calleda mcv 21

in north america it is called an mcv-20

you are right it will fit right in no problems at all

it is only bagding that makes teh cars different nothing else

97-99 will fit for sure

so will the 99-01 but the guy who did that change also changed his hood and bumpers

wow i have never heard of a cruise control that hasa cut off

my canadian 94 runs and cruises at 140km no problem just sit back and steer

the radio would have to be replaced

try getting an american unit if they have the same frequency steps as you guys

you might just need to get a new cruise control ecu which may help check with the dealer

sounds like you got anothers experiment again

the internals of the head should not change but somehow are

he he

i think he got the answer on the usa forums a while ago

as this is from 02 october

clean the intake plenum with a throttle body cleaner and then run a fuel injector cleaner

after the car is warm it closes the cold bypass for the intake which will cause teh car to die if blocked by carbon and oil varnish from the pcv valve

the only problem is the alternator change that and everything will be ok

get your mony back they are not worht $1 or even peso

short pipes only lose power and fuel milage

you can get an adapter plae for the maf

and trhe buld piping to behind the front bumper and place the filter there
